That does it, I’m never installing Chrome again. I haven’t in years anyway because it’s garbage spyware, but still.

At least the costumes can be sold for Halloween in Tesla’s forthcoming liquidation sale, unlike their cars that nobody wants.

Ending encryption is Meta’s end so they can spy on everyone and help governments do so as well, so they therefore have an end to end encryption. Oh, y’all thought the app had true E2EE such that even Meta with their surveillance capitalist business model couldn’t access your data? 🤣

Oh, come on, not all lawyers are vultures who exploit the law for their own financial gain. Some of them are retired, or dead.

I’d love to never buy from Nvidia again if RDNA 5 can live up to the hype. Current generation AMD cards are unfortunately not cost effective for the path tracing and compute workloads I run (Blender rendering, simulations, and certain ML models). Hopefully, AMD will offer midrange cards with strong compute capabilities that don’t have artificially limited VRAM. I’m especially excited about the Radiance cores: true RTX to compete with Optix.

I can see some merit in this idea. On a similar note, my company has GH Copilot code reviews, so I regularly generate code with Copilot using the Claude Sonnet model locally and then Copilot reviews my PRs (in addition to humans). A lot of times, the code review feedback is on point, and then I often copy and paste it back to the Copilot agent I’m running locally to address the code review feedback.

Having 2 passes of AI does improve the result, though it would quickly go off the rails without senior engineers reviewing and steering the output, not to mention putting the initial architecture in place. From my experience, I can’t imagine building anything with AI that has any reasonable amount of complexity that won’t eventually collapse in on itself without the guidance of senior engineers. Multiple AI agents working as an ensemble won’t eliminate the need for that guidance, IMO.

I self-host Forgejo and use its issues for this purpose, though it’s probably too simplistic based on your description.

The Elder Scrolls VI with mandatory Microsoft account and Copilot integration 💀

Getting closer: probably about 30 years away with this new development.

BitLocker? More like ShitLocker.

From a quick reading of the actual law, here are some of the AI uses it prohibits that will apparently “stifle innovation”:

…use of an AI system that exploits any of the vulnerabilities of a natural person or a specific group of persons due to their age, disability or a specific social or economic situation

…to assess or predict the risk of a natural person committing a criminal offence, based solely on the profiling of a natural person or on assessing their personality traits and characteristics

…the use of an AI system that deploys subliminal techniques beyond a person’s consciousness or purposefully manipulative or deceptive techniques

…the use of AI systems that create or expand facial recognition databases through the untargeted scraping of facial images from the internet or CCTV footage

…the use of biometric categorisation systems that categorise individually natural persons based on their biometric data to deduce or infer their race, political opinions, trade union membership, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life or sexual orientation

The CEOs are investing in AI to put on airs for investors and inflate their company valuation, often pissing off customers and losing sales in the process. It’s evidently a worthy trade-off to make number go up.

I first read it as TLC. You mean the TVs will play nothing but low-grade reality shows?

Whining that nobody wants to use your product worked pretty well for Zuck and his Mii-verse. Oh, that’s right, it didn’t, never mind.

Yeah, people responding to my original comment assume I’d prefer Jim Crow Joe. Trump has a more abrasive personality that a lot of people love to hate, but obviously they’re both geriatric puppets to distract everyone while the billionaire cabal continues business as usual. Trump is primarily an entertainer and is certainly the more engaging distraction.

I assume you’re referring to the fact that Tesla has a Shanghai factory and is exporting Teslas made there to Canada.
